Hagman Thrilled With Racy Role

Veteran actor Larry Hagman is thrilled he got to guest star on sexy plastic surgery drama NIP/TUCK, because he was able to speak racy dialogue for the first time in his career.
The actor has starred in such iconic feel-good shows such as I Dream Of Jeannie and Dallas, but he admits it was time to branch out into more adult territory.
He tells US OK! magazine in Nip/Tuck he plays a patient who wants surgery on his penis. He "has his gonads removed. They say, 'What size would you like?'
"And I say 'kiwi size.' Forty years on television and I've never been able to say things like that!"
But no one has teased him for his squeaky-clean screen past, adding, "Everyone's been so nice to me. Of course, I'm an icon and I expect that s**t!"
